 In discussing matters relative to local
 
 advantages gained by the maintenance of a good band. To the casual observer it would appear that questions of this nature are of purely individual interest. While this is undoubtedly true in monetary sense, a careful consideration of all phases fof projected enterprises will develop the fact: The progress of town depends upon lthe progress of it's individuals. Therefore, l anything that pertains to the development I and cultivation of talent in any direction l should be encouraged both morally and Financially. I take occasion to mention in this respect the Citizens brass band. Sus- tained by the efforts of it's members for upwards of five years, receiving little or no support or patronage, 1t is high time the people manifested an interest in it's well fare by building pavilion for it's use. It ' is surprising how easily this could be accomplished if undertaken in the right way. An energetic committee could in a few weeks raise sufficient funds, by pop ular subscriptions, to build pavilion that would be an ornament. If this is accom- plished series of concerts will be- given on two evenings of each week during the summer, and in addition it is promised that musicians from other parts will be in duced to come here. These concerts would not only prove an entertaining diversion in the routine of daily life, butsa decided attraction In order to meet current ex- penses the band proposes to give masquer- ade promenade at the rink on April 18th. The price of admission has been placed at seventy-fv cents, with the provision that all moneys received. from the sale of spec tators tickets ltwenty five gcentD will be contributed to the memorial fundio of Win +tefpost, G.kAl R. Skating sfromi8 to 10 and dancing from 10 to 2, all included in the price of admission. This project is doubly worthy of support, and it is hoped will receive liberal patronage.

MURDEROUs ANARCHIsT5.-Ih meeting
of Bakers Union, No. 10, in Chicago, ended
in bloodshed Saturday evening. The union
has been split into two factions eyer since
the Hsymarket riot upon the question OF
socialism aud auarchism, and early in the
summer that faction which desired to pub.
licly denounce the police aad everybody else
connected with the suppression and punish
ment Of auarchism put into practice seeded
from Bakers Union, No. 10, and formed In
dependent Union, Nc. /. A Joint meeting
of the TWO unions was held with view 10
consolidation o week ago, ndanother meet
ing was called for Saturday night. There
was large attendance and spirited dis
cussion. which soon grew in excitement I'M
til Albert Kreuger, CT No. l, accused Adam
Kort, of the opposite faction, OF having mis-
appropriated funds belonging TO the union.
a few recrimnate epithets were passed be-
tween the two, when Kreuger, who is very
large, heavy man, drew dirk kniie ana
rushed upon Kort, who is hardly half his
size. Kort received the knife in his right
shoulder, the blade passing down to the el-
bow and through to the bone. A general
fight took place about the two men, which
ended by Kreuger, who received badly
bruised eye aud few scratches, escaping
through the front door. Kreuger is rabid
anarchist. Kort will probably recover un-
less it develops that Kreuger's knife blade
was poisoned as is feared. Officers followed
close upon Kreuger's heels 10 his residence
Here Kreuger made as desperate resist
ance as lay within his power, having thrown
away the knife and being without weapons
of any kind The officers forced their way
into the house, and had sharp struggle with
Kreuger, who seemed determined to brain
one of them with chair, but he was over
powered and locked up.

CARDINAL GIBBONS IN RoME.-Cardinal
Gibbons has been very busy since his arri-
val in Rome No definite information Of
the business of the Propaganda is known,
but it is certain that the great questions
touching Catholic interests in America will
be considered carefully. Cardinal Gibbons
is expected to express an opinion on all
questions submitted for his views, because
of his great acquaintance with the present
American questions, and his strong love Of
American institutions. 1t is difficult TO be-
lieve that the conclusion reached will be of
an nnfavorab!e character. Time is still re-
uuireG for the settlement of the cardinals in
Curia. Bishops Carr, of Melbourne, and
Keane, of Richmond, Va, congratulated the
Pope in the Vatican yesterday upon the
ninth anniversary of his pontificate. The
Pope, in his discourse, described the Balti-
more council as an honor to America and
to the whole church. Bishop Keane after
ward thanked the Pope.
